Straight forward greasy spoon that met the standard. Would eat there again if local, but wouldn't plan a pilgrimage if you follow me. I had their creamed beef over toast breakfast. Needed salt which for creamed beef...how can it be bland when salt is used to preserve the meat? My son had eggs, sausage, hash brown patty breakfast. Like another reviewer wrote, "seemed straight from Sysco". I will go again to try another dish or two and update this review if wowed. read more

Not sure what the fuss is about. The food seemed straight from Sysco...not homemade. Biscuits were similar to pillsbury grands, nothing special. Chicken fried steak was ok, gravy was ok, everything was...ok.... it was all fine but wouldn't make a special trip. read more

I love this place. A very good hole on the wall neighborhood favorites with home down good country cooking. I always order the breakfast bowl which is a bowl of everything good in this restaurant smothered with delicious traditional sausage gravy. Never disappointed! The service is also so friendly and very warm. It's like eating in your grandma's kitchen. read more

If you come for breakfast, come hungry. We had the country fried steak breakfast and the breakfast bowl with sausage. We sat outside and our server was friendly. The CFS was really good and I ordered the hash browns crispy and they didn't disappoint. The breakfast bowl was good and came with sausage gravy. The sausage gravy on this was better than the pepper gravy on the steak. Next time, I would substitute for the sausage gravy. The eggs ordered over medium were more like well done, but the food was still good. This is a solid little spot in Powell, so if you are hungry for breakfast, give them a try. read more

We went in early on a Sunday morning for some breakfast. It was early enough there was only a few people in the restaurant. The restaurant probably seats 20 people. The interior is small and dated, however the diner appeared to be clean. There is heated seating outside. The service was excellent. I would have given this place 5 stars if the food was better, the food was nothing I would rush back to get. I ordered the waffle, the waffle had a crust of sugar, so it tasted like a donut. It was okay, not what I was expecting in a traditional waffle. I like strong coffee, I didn't get that here. My SO had the biscuits and gravy, it was meh. If I go back, I will definitely try the pancakes. Overall, it was a pleasant experience (due to the pleasant server) with sub par/poor food. read more

Delicious breakfast! Kind of a small blink and you miss it place, but it is ALWAYS crowded, and for good reason. Best brunch spot in Powell. The omelets are amazing! The entire menu is amazing! read more

This is a hidden gem. I ordered the fried green tomatoes omelet and hubby the breakfast burrito. They were both amazing. This is out of the way for us, but we are definitely making another trip to take our daughter. read more

We are new to Powell from PA and will not be strangers again at Anne's. Alan, our server was super as was the food. We will be back repeatedly! read more

Needed to kill some time before an appointment in Powell, so I figured I'd check out a local breakfast joint. This place is diner style, so i sat at the counter which always makes me feel nostalgic. Ordered a classic breakfast (eggs, sausage patties, hash browns, and French toast). The eggs were cooked exactly as requested. The sausage patties were tasty and cooked perfectly. The hash browns were great. The French toast was okay. The service was exceptional. And I was quite impressed when I noticed both the waitress and the cook cleaning various surfaces in-between their tasks. read more

Fun wine tasting (last Wednesday of month) with excellent service. Also enjoyed several shared plates including the eggplant Zorba.

Get back in your car and go somewhere else. I didn't even dine yet and I couldn't be given the time of day when I checked in this morning.

This place is pretty good! Service was great, food was okay. Hash brown casserole was lacking flavor and I wasn't a fan of the breakfast sausage. Tasted more like Italian sausage. Another thing that threw me off was the hair straightener plugged in, ready to be used in the women's restroom. Eggs were cooked perfectly, and their toast is AMAZING! Biscuit and gravy was pretty good too! Would I come regularly? Probably not, but would come back again if we were in the area. read more

Phenomenal breakfast! Staff was fast and friendly. Quaint space and the seating is tight but the food is worth it. Will be back!!!

The Santa Fe Omelet spoke to me. It's a pork tenderloin folded in half like an omelet with the eggs, cheese, and peppers all stuffed inside. The whole thing is bathed in Anne's outstanding sausage gravy. Yum! read more

Whoa y'all. We were looking for a fun breakfast on our anniversary, and this ended up being the best diner experience I've had in Ohio. We sat at the counter and took it all in--genuinely cheerful, attentive service, amazing grill cook, and banter with the regulars. Specific endorsements: Grits were perfectly cooked to order, with a huge puddle of melted salted butter in the center. Drizzled with honey, it was basically ambrosia. Enormous breakfast sandwich was stacked high but somehow maintained its structural integrity through us sharing/dipping eagerly in ketchup/pausing to marvel at how damn tasty it was. Side of fried potatoes were crispy, spiced, and tender...just order it. No regrets. We also got a waffle and coffee+OJ, which were more standard-but-good. Ok, the waffle was actually amazing too, now that I think about it. Dense but flavorful and buttery, with ripe strawberries and banana slices on top. We were just stuffed by then and it was more of a feat to finish it than anything else ;) Next time I'll try to edit my selections in line with stomach capacity! read more

Do yourself a favor and try the Barria Tacos!! We always have come for breakfast which is good food with lots of options. We came for the Mexican dinner tonight and by far the tacos were excellent! I will never go anywhere else - all the options....American style or Mexican style Al pastor, beef, chorizo, chicken, shrimp...but the barria tacos were to die for!!! I have never had and they are my new favorite food! Doesn't hurt that the staff is always pleasant and restaurant is clean. Highly recommend!!!! read more

Food was very good. Hot and plenty of it!! The staff was super friendly and efficient. Absolutely recommend coming! It is small so large party's of 6 or more might have a wait. read more

the kindness of the staff saves this place. The Mexican menu is actually pretty good. Most of the regular menu is pretty mediocre (at least out of what I've had), but good for the price and I'm never disappointed that I choose to eat here. The vibe is very genuine, it's not trying to be anything it's not. read more

Excellent food on a home dinner atmosphere. Great location for Powell residents to walk over and enjoy breakfast or lunch definitely recommend them to everyone! Not many places that serve great breakfast and they do! read more

How have I not been here before?! While I like Sunny Street and First Watch I was missing old school diner so went searching on Yelp and found this place! Exactly what I was looking for! Good food cooked right in front of you! I had the creamed beef today and looking forward to trying other menu items on future stops! read more

Food is excellent! Portions were good sized. Hashbrown casserole was amazing. Rated 4 because of wait but this was a Sunday, they have limited seating. We will definitely return. read more

"Sweetie, everything tastes better cooked in bacon drippings." That's one of the things you may overhear at Anne's. We made the Saturday morning breakfast trip to Powell for some home cooking out of a strip mall setting. This is not a large establishment, and even smaller when the weather closes the outdoor dining. A quick peek inside showed a clean, bright spot, with acoustics that only elevated the crowd noise. A table(and chairs) was cleared, and wiped outside. A friendly welcome, and rundown of what these first-timers could expect from the offerings. We were warned that meals are large. A quick perusal of the breakfast menu left us unfulfilled as the four of us wanted to try about 20 items. Oh well, 4 it must be. Notice the gap? The wait on the food as mentioned in other reviews is real. We were lucky enough to fill the gap with great conversation, with great company. If you have impatient children, you may want to order fruit, oatmeal, or cereal upon being seated. Outside, in particular seasons, you may notice the local bees like to buzz around. No hassles from any nearby diners, but be aware if you have a phobia or allergy. Hey, the foods here! Wow are these portions big. Yep. You can smell and taste that bacon dripping flavor all over the plate. Since the table basically turned into a buffet with 4 forks, here's what we tried. Scrambled Delight with enough contents to be an omelette. Ciabatta French toast with fresh fruit. chipped beef on toast. Eggs benedict. Potatoes, hashbrown casserole, biscuits, gravy, hand pattied sausage, bacon, coffee, juice. Everything tastes wonderful. There's so much of it. This is where you bring growing teenage boys who will only order one meal. Then go home and get in the fridge again. We could not find a single item that we did not want. It was all so good. I did find that ONE item that only they do, and no one else. The regulars will tell you Ciabatta FT, Bologna, hashbrown cass, fried green tomatoes. All of these are found elsewhere and done in comparable taste. I'm not sure vegans will enjoy the bacon drippings. Nor does it look like the place for a separate vegan, gluten free prep area. This is your grandmas kitchen with a cast iron skillet that never gets scrubbed clean. Stop going to chain restaurants with the name Kitchen or Barrel in the title. Even your grandmother would curl her top lip at that food. Here, she would start hugging people, and tie on an apron on her way into the kitchen. read more

The best breakfast I've ever eaten, this MUST be on everyone's bucket list, you'll be regulars in a heartbeat!

Been twice. Food, service, parking and value all excellent. Convenient for those of us who live in Dublin or Powell. Mom and pop diner. Medium size-good meeting place for couples and 4-sums. Could use a little more ambiance: Seating seems "scattered and unorganized." read more

The environment: Fairly small and noisy on the weekends. The younger server was impersonal and complained about another customer. However, the rest of the staff was friendly and provided good service. The food: I ordered the chicken and waffle, side of hash browns, and coffee. The coffee was good and refills were free. My disappointment started when my chicken and waffle came out. The waffle was almost cake like; it was extremely dry and crumbled. The batter on the chicken was seasoned well but it tasted and looked like frozen chicken tenders. My hash browns never came out and were not listed on my bill. Overall: Given the reviews I was expecting a really nice experience and meal. I was especially excited about the chicken and waffles. Sadly, I am not sure I would return. read more

The place was small and hard to find, but full of locals. You can seat yourself wherever you want which was a nice change. I ordered eggs and pancakes and toast with fruit. The eggs were greasy like waffle house and the toast was a bit burnt. The fruit was minimal, but the pancakes were fantastic!. The staff was very good, especially refilling my coffee as they seemed to know every time when I needed more. I think I would go again, but this time not order the eggs. read more

It's hard to find a table at this place on the weekend because it's packed. The food is pretty great. I just wish it was bigger to accommodate the demand. Powell needs it! read more

We decided to try this place out for carry this morning and loved it! We tried a little bit of everything. All the food was great and homemade! I can't wait to come to try some of the other menu items. They have quite a selection of breakfast items, and some southern specialities you don't find around here. The staff was friendly and clearly cared about their food! Seating is limited so come early. I am planning on trying their grab and go special for 3.99 on my way to work. read more

I work in Powell, so we went to this place for lunch one day. While they seem like great people, I wouldn't recommend this place for lunch. They were very busy that day and the one (early 20 something) that was waiting tables was clearly flustered and was taking it out on the customers. The gfood was simply ok. I had a grilled chicken sandwich which was just barely cooked enough to be considered done. All this said, I will still give this place another shot for breakfast. The breakfast sandwich special seems like a great deal for a quick grab and go breakfast. read more

I came here on a Saturday afternoon and got horrible service all the way through. My order was prepared incorrectly and was not my favorite even after it was remade. My son's kids portion was too small so I had to order him extra food. Overall, I would not come back here read more

Lots of potential. Anne's kitchen just opened 6 days ago & they seem to be doing pretty good. Food was good, place clean, staff pleasant & presentable. Tried pretty much all the breakfast types of food. Disappointed in the pancakes, crumbled before I could get any on the fork, but the flavor was good. The owner is open to suggestions & comments & striving to make this place great. I will definitely come back, as this place can only get better. read more

This place is awesome!! They have a grab n' go breakfast- $3.99 for a breakfast sandwich (you can customize), small muffin and a coffee. Took only 3 minutes to make and I was on my way. I got egg, bacon, and cheddar on a biscuit. There were about 5 pieces of bacon on it and eggs were made to perfection. HUGE breakfast meal on the cheap! I will be making this a weekly breakfast spot on the way to work. read more

Omg, so, so delicious! Belgian waffles, eggs, hash browns and so many other delicious choices makes this a go to place! Coffee cup never goes dry and the staff was fun and oh so sweet! read more

This place is definitely hidden away but was worth a visit. The inside is pretty nice and the decor was pretty standard diner. We ordered sausage gravy, hash browns,eggs, and a fruit bowl. Everything was super tasty and you definitely get plenty of food. The service was attentive and cheerful. I think I had my coffee refilled three times without asking. Definitely a great breakfast or lunch spot in Powell. read more

I love love love Anne's kitchen! It's a cute little place and offers great breakfast for a great price!

Great place for Breakfast and lunch. Friendly staff and reasonable prices too. This is the Breakfast Bowl with sausage potatoes eggs and gravy! read more

I generally get the breakfast bowl. It's always cooked beautifully and its big. I hate skimpy breakfasts, lol. We've been to ALOT of breakfast places. Even the Hilton sucks. They never have consistency and charge a fortune. Nor have the original professional chef. And it's bad service. Just visit Anne's and contribute to family owned businesses. The owner cooks your food and works really hard. I recommend this place for breakfast. I have not..... tried it much for lunch. So, I can only review for breakfast read more

The place is cozy and clean. There's a counter for dining as well as seating for smaller groups. The menu had a lot of choices and all looked delicious. Pricing seemed fair for the amount of food you get and the freshness. My husband ordered decaf coffee and eggs Benedict (served with spinach, tomato and ham) with a side of hash browns casserole. I ordered the breakfast bowl. This comes with sausage gravy, an egg, sausage and biscuits. Big too. It come also with your choice of potatoes. I got a coffee and orange juice. For the grand total of $24. We will definitely come back if we are in the area. It's a little drive from Westerville. read more

Small place so you may have to wait, but well worth it. The chicken and waffles were excellent as well a the breakfast bowl. Waffles were some of the best I have ever had. read more

Nice location, diner environment. Friendly people on staff and mostly local customers. Had breakfast. Good-sized portions on eggs, bacon potatoes. Nice toast slices. Biscuits/gravy generous portions and gravy nice and hot. Will go back again. read more
